It is a difficult market. I remember when Netbooks started out many were running on some Linux distribution, but most people were willing to pay a premium for windows. So the challenge for you is going to find a market. I suspect that most Ubuntu Users are able to format a standard OS and install Ubuntu on it. One idea might be to import some extremely cheap system and offer that one with Ubuntu pre-installed. Good luck!

For them, we've got plenty of Windows laptops and Macbooks to choose from :-) We're aiming to sell these primarily to existing Ubuntu users. Imagine if you just received your laptop in the mail and could start using it right away instead of installing an OS and fiddling with packages. If you especially enjoy doing that, then you're not our target customer anyway.
